I was away for 12 days first in Vancouver and then working in Victoria. While there I was around people who had the flu/cold which seems to be going around right now. As I usually don’t get sick or pick up these things I didn’t worry about it at all. On Monday I left Victoria caught the 9am ferry to Vancouver and then drove home to Penticton. After making two stops. I finally arrived home at 5pm and I knew I was not feeling too well. I had caught the ‘bug’.<br />The next day my daughter Bridget phoned me and I told her I wasn’t feeling well and that I had ‘the cold’. She immediately said “and what was going on with you ten days ago”? I already knew that answer, because I had gone back to look. I<strong> often tell people if you get a cold or flu, go back ten days and see what was unresolved emotionally and that will be the reason you have the cold/flu. </strong>Well ten days earlier my daughter had flown in to drive me back to Vancouver because I was not sure my new knee would handle the drive. (Incidently, on the way there the freeway was closed and the 5 ½ hour trip too eight as we had to go another route). Before we left it seemed I was worried about everything. I was nervous about working in the mall in Victoria and ended up changing working seven days to four (much easier for me). I was worried about whether I would be able to get up and down from the bed where I stay at my friend’s place (there was absolutely no problem with getting up and down off the bed). I was worried about her toilet (I took my extra add-on seat – which meant there was no problem). All these worries I had were groundless, but at the time I was a big puddle of worry and anxiety. Today I’m paying for it. Even the concern about driving. Once in Vancouver area I had to drive around, and I had no difficulty at all, and the way I had to drive home (mind you it was ten days later and every day the knee gets a bit better)I was fine.<br />I could say silly me for worrying, but as I know what the emotional cause is, I’m going back and forgiving myself for being a ‘mess’ and the cold is moving through its stages quite fast. Thank goodness. I need to be well enough for on Sunday I’m speaking at our local Celebration &amp; Metaphysical Centre. Right now my voice is a bit thick and I have a small cough occasionally, so I’m sure I will be just fine in a couple of days. I have been able to do my readings which were booked and come in, but I did move a couple of more intensive appointments to next week.<br />Also, the Oscars are on Sunday night and I will watch as usual. I love the Oscars. Talking about the Oscars and movies, my friends know that I love the movies and the one thing in moving to this city which I absolutely love is I miss the movie theatres. Here they have a four theatre complex but nothing is on during the day during the week, which is when I used to treat myself to go and see a movie. Most weekends I’m busy and can’t get to the theatre as I have classes or other appointments. My visits to the movie house is the single thing I miss (besides visiting with my friends) since moving here. I have not seen a lot of the nominated movies this year, but I will still, as always enjoy watching the ‘oscar show’.<br />What ever you are doing this weekend – enjoy and most of all stay healthy.<br />____________________________<br />Norma Cowie<br />250 490 0654<br />March 21 - 24th - Psychic Development Weekend<br />May 23 - 25th - Learn how to a Past Life RegressionistNorma Cowiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10491675245071561341noreply@blogger.com
